[inaccordant]

Six or higher, most likely. Don't take that as an exact quote just yet.

[ambiography]

I'll bear that in mind.

[another few moments of consideration follow.]

You don't have to quote me on this if it is possible, but I've been wondering. It was mentioned we could try to make exchanges for information-- is there any chance we could manage to get a better idea of just how vouchers are obtained, because if I'm being honest with you, Chad, the math is a pain in our asses at the moment.

[inaccordant]

[he pauses, thinking.]

... I'll have to get back to you on that. The only info that I know for sure you can buy with vouchers is the limited weekly piece.

[ambiography]

That's better than I expected, actually, so- do let me know if you find anything out.

[she'll wait on that one.]

For now, I think I'd like to strengthen the barrier first, and then if I find a need to use it more often I'll ask again about lowering the time.

[inaccordant]

Right now, you mean?

[ambiography]

Not immediately, no. I might hang on to it until a little later in the week this time.

[just in case important shit comes up and she needs to help someone out-- she does still have it in its base state already, so that's something.]

But I'll be taking care of that prior to Thursday.

[inaccordant]

All right. It's yours to decide, after all.

[ambiography]

Then I'll message you about it this Wednesday, most likely.

[she is not getting up, though, with that part of the conversation taken care of-- lucretia just glances to one of the boxes.]

Do they not give you enough shelves, Chad?

[inaccordant]

I don't see a reason to ask for what I don't need.

[ambiography]

You barely have a floor.

[YES, YOU NEED SHELVES.]

[inaccordant]

I've managed.

[ :/ ]

[ambiography]

Let me guess. You know where you've left everything, so there's no need for you to do anything about it.

[inaccordant]

That, and I won't necessarily need everything during my time in the dorm. If it's still packed, it's easier to move it again.

[ambiography]

You could still stand to make the place more liveable-- I'm sure you could get a little help packing it all back up later.

[inaccordant]

I'd rather do it myself.

[ambiography]

-yes, that's more or less what I expected.

[chad.]

[inaccordant]

[:pensive:]

... They're my belongings, so they're my responsibility. Besides, it ensures they won't get mishandled.

[ambiography]

Is that only caution, or are that many of them sentimental?

[inaccordant]

Some of them I can sell if I need the money.

[ambiography]

I suppose that's understandable.

[she's peering at some of the books, though, curious.]

What do you usually prefer reading?

[inaccordant]

Mostly nonfiction.

[though there is some fiction in the mix, usually more along the lines of epics and the like.]

[ambiography]

I tend to be the same way, myself. There are fiction genres I enjoy, still, but-- I was a biographer, originally, so I suppose I have more of a natural inclination towards it.

[inaccordant]

[...]

A biographer? So you wrote about other people's lives?

[ambiography]

I did. No one would have really known my name from my work, but most people from my world would almost certainly have read something I'd ghostwritten.

[inaccordant]

... What made you start?
